Almost a year after violent mass protests in Kazakhstan, the country has reelected its incumbent president, Kassym-Jomart Tokayev. He has distanced himself from his predecessor and promised reforms.
According to Amnesty International, the phones of four Kazakh activists were confirmed to have been infected with the Pegasus spyware. There are likely more.

AKIPRESS.COM - The Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project (OCCRP) released a report on Pegasus Project on July 18.
Pegasus is the flagship product of Israeli cyber-surveillance company NSO Group, perhaps the best known of the new spyware companies. NSO Group’s technology allows its clients which the company says are always governments, never private individuals or companies to target specific phone numbers and infect the associated devices with Pegasus code.
Pegasus allows its users to commandeer the device itself, gaining access to everything on it.
Pegasus also monitors the keystrokes on an infected device – all written communications and web searches, even passwords – and returns them to the client, while also providing access the phone’s microphone and camera, turning it into a mobile spying device that the target unwittingly carries with them.
